Emphysema Pathogenesis: Pathogenesis: Smoking,air pollution,infection,Intrinsic. Smoking,air pollution,infection,Intrinsic. - Alpha 1 Antitrypsin def: inhibits proteolytic enzymes released from macrophages and neutrophils. - Alpha 1 Antitrypsin def: inhibits proteolytic enzymes released from macrophages and neutrophils. Increases in smokers Increases in smokers Basal segments. Basal segments.
